Prey - is French director Antoine Blossier's debut effort and brings together some mystery, great FX work for a gritty, wilderness based horror flick. The film flew under the radar last year, but was picked up by IFC Midnight. Fans of foreign horror will definitely want to check this one out.

Drive Angry - is a film that has to be seen to believe. This gonzo exploitation throwback features enough OTT blood, action and humor to thrill some and offend most. It also features one of the best performances of the year by William Fichtner. I mentioned in my Drive Angry review that it's what Death Proof should have been and I think you already know if you're a fan of this kind of thing.


Stanley Kubrick: Limited Edition Collection - This is just a beautiful thing. I picked up that first Kubrick DVD Collection a couple years back and was disappointed that it didn't include many of my favourite films like Lolita, Spartacus, Paths of Glory or The Killing. This new Blu-ray set however is a totally different story. Along with all the films included in that set we also get Lolita, Barry Lyndon, Spartacus and Dr. Strangelove. No, it's not a complete set but it's close. And with The Killing and Paths of Glory out on Blu-ray from The Criterion Collection there's really not much to complain about here.


Other releases of note include Once Upon a Time in the West on Blu-ray, Biutiful, Gregg Araki's Kaboom, Ridley Scott's Unicorn fantasy flick Legend is out on Blu-ray and True Blood: The Complete Third Season is also out.
